Persian Culture

In English we read Rubaiyat and Manners of Kings both written by Persians. From these two stories I learned some things about the culture of Persians. One was that they believe that you are either going to hell or going to place where theres no hardships like heaven. The second one is that they have a god named Allah, who they strongly believe in.

Noah's vs. Gilgamesh floud

In English 12, we read the stories Gilgamesh The Great Floud, and The Noah's Ark from the Bible. They are very similar stories, but also different. They both have animials, a boat in the story. The characters both take birds to find land after the land is flouded. The only thing that I saw that was different was when Enkidu lives forever, but Noah died when he was in his 200s.
